  • Of the Linguistic Society of Ameri
    1856c ARTHUR S. ABRAMSON Arthur S. Abramson, former Secretary, Vice President, and President (1983) of the Linguistic Society of America, died on December 15, 2017, at the age of ninety-two.1 He was a central figure in the linguistic study of tone, voicing, voice quality, and duration, primarily in their phonetic realization. His seminal work with Leigh Lisker (Lisker & Abramson 1964) introduced the metric VOICE ONSET TIME (VOT), which has become per- haps the most widely used measure in phonetics. He contributed to the field in numerous other ways; in addition to his work for the LSA, he became the first chair of the Linguis- tics Department of the University of Connecticut, served as editor of Language and Speech, and was a long-term researcher and board member of Haskins Laboratories. LIFE. Arthur was born January 26, 1925, in Jersey City, New Jersey. He learned Bib- lical Hebrew in his childhood, and then followed up with post-Biblical Hebrew later on. Yiddish was also part of his background. His parents were born in the US, but his grandparents were not, and they primarily spoke Yiddish. He learned some from his mother, and it came in handy when he served in the US Army in Europe during World War II. (Many years later, he taught it at the University of Connecticut in the Center for Judaic Studies, which he helped establish.) He became fluent in French, starting from classes in high school, where he was lucky enough to have a native speaker as a teacher. (The teacher was Belgian, and Arthur was sometimes said, by French colleagues, to have a Belgian accent.) Arthur had an early introduction to synthetic speech when he at- tended the New York World’s Fair in 1939.

  • Biogenetic Structuralism'
    'BIOGE~TIC STRUCTURALISM'STRUCTURALISM" AND THE LOCATION OF STRUCTURES*STRUCTURES~'< In the heyday of 'high' structuralism it was sometimes argued, explicitly or implicitly, that the ultimate 'explanation' of cultural structures was to be found in the properties of 'the human mind'. This argument, it was perhaps felt, shifted the problem of explanation to the realm 'of philosophr, which many anthropologists considered outsiqe their concern.
